The entertainers, who were married in 2008 at Carey's estate in the Bahamas, celebrated their wedding anniversary with a private party in Los Angeles Friday, People.com reported. Noting Carey's affection for classic candy Ring Pops, Cannon had Jason of Beverly Hills hand craft a Ring Pops replica made of white gold, encrusted with white diamonds and pink sapphires, the magazine said.

"It also comes in a box complete with a spinner so that you can see it sparkle under the lights inside," Jason Arasheben, the chief executive officer of Jason of Beverly Hills, told People.

Cannon, 29, proposed to Carey, 41, three years ago with a diamond ring hidden inside a Ring Pops wrapper, the report said.

Cannon said last month he and Carey planned to renew their wedding vows on their 2nd anniversary.

"I encourage everybody to do it," he said. "If you are happy and in love, celebrate it!"
